Description: This slender woman stands about 3'11". She wears very tight pants and wife beaters, though occasionally she sports a brown coat. She has dyed her greying golden hair a little too much giving a sharp golden color. She was beautiful and young once, which still shows through her age, but it is a faded beauty.

Personality: A skeptical and narcissistic woman, Torbera's first love is herself. Her second love is also herself. She dislikes loud distracting noises, but is overall hospitable. Her biggest love is that of knowledge and as such will purchase any books or pay to listen to tales that travelers might have.

History: Her father raised her in a mountain cabin. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the island to a summer home near a ruined castle. She would wander through that ruined castle and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the island due to the painful memories there. Torbera took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up hand crossbow and armor she uses now. She bought a hand crossbow and has really upped her game hunting, due to her understanding of decoy and ambush.
